Home Depot. 6 2x6x12 ft Double them up with bolts. 12 ft high 12 ft across.2 4x4's for feet. 2x4 for braces. I took my 2 chev 350's out that way. I did it on the ground beside the house. Used a comealong to lift and set on tailgate. Lot of work but cheap. Later used 2x6's on new deck. That was 5 years ago.I was only 70 then.

I think I am going to build a a-frame and use a Cable winch puller to lift it. It's the easiest for me because it's going to be in a warehouse my dad built and it's 12ft high so it would be easier to build a a-frame in the warehouse. Can anyone tell me ways to make a wood a-frame to pull the engines. Thanks for any replies.

Thank you all for your replies. I think i am going to build an a frame and use a chain hoist to lift the motors. Thanks for the advice blefever about the come-a-long dropping your engine.

[QUOTE=drpete3;3937778]If you have 12 ft ceilings cant you somehow attach your hoist to the ceiling or rafters?
+1 on this.. most rafters should be able to hold this weigh.. depending on what kind of support you have! We hung a "BIGASS" fan in the middle of our receiving area and just had to run angle out 6ft in each direction to hold the big electric motor and components..
